I Only Sleep
Anna takes a moment
to capitulate the same
set of memories to move forward
builds a motor with her name
Leaves a trail of blind surrender
and imagines its a game
when the head is broken hearted
then the heart is all aflame
I Only Sleep
I competed in a summer
what you conquered in the fall
the judges don't surrender
only calculate and call
call call
Anna Takes a moment…
to capitulate the same
set her memories to move forward
builds a motor with her name
the phone never stops ringing
when you have nothing to say
the tv is so quiet
when you've forgotten how to pray
I Only Sleep

I made a play for a girl on a pedestal
laid all my cards in a pile
told her my name and where i was coming from
asked her to follow me there
she seemed afraid but she came with me anyway
she told me her name and she smiled
she promised to stay if i promised to stick around
we only live a day
the rest is a polaroid
or dreams left unfulfilled
if we've only a day
let's not waste any time
you know nothing else is real

Make pretend
and let go
it proves the heart and makes the show
camouflage a make-shift song
in haunted keys that turn you on
i could move into your sphere
i kissed your lips and pulled you near
she holds the lamplight
i hold the oil
under the mattress and under the soil
make pretend and let go
it proves the heart and makes the show
a lifted veil beheld your smile
and heaven shook for miles and miles
a happy mess
an afterglow
attracts my love
attracts my…
she holds the lamplight
i hold the oil
under the mattress and under the soil

A maiden for your albatross
an answer for your majesty
His Holiness is anti-septic
dripping through the streets
Made by hand and washed by mouth
a captain for the sea
all the visions that you have
are all just images of me
and i became a dream
and i desolved into a thousand pixels
floating in the air
and mesmerized by all the faces i saw there
is just a momentary fortress in the sky
in the sky
a name to put your faces to
a meaning you can hold on to
the empress is fond of you
and she could never lie
an ear to press your mouth against
a tongue to graze your cheek
and all the signals that you intercept
to set your lights aglow
and i became a dream
and i desolved into a thousand pixels
floating in the air
and mesmerized by all the faces i saw there
is just a momentary fortress in the sky
in the sky
maybe i'm a mutineer
maybe i'm a liar
or maybe i am everyone
flirting with the fire

i heard a nightingale
said she wished you well
she was speaking like a child who knows no words
she disappeared from view
and the stars burned out
where the angels weep
and keep their sleep
no ones coming here to send me off
i wouldn't lie
i must have wandered off
now the sun has gone
and all the paths looks just as strange and monotone
i saw a cabin there
with a yellow light
and smoke was billowing from the fireplace
i lost my place...
where the angels weep
and keep their sleep
no ones coming here to send me off
i wouldn't lie
